Have the Dolphins Hit Bottom?

Written by DolphinMick on .

Ouch.  I feel like I have been kicked in the stomach 8 times.  Why 8?  Because my beloved Dolphins have lost 8 in a row dating back to December of last year. 

 So far, there is no help in sight with the way in which the Dolphins lose. 

Dolphins seem so close, but so far, they are proving to be a bumbling franchise with need and hope for a savior. (Hence the Andrew Luck talk)

You can look back on the string of losses that led to this 8 game losing streak and realize that the worst lost was the first one.  The Dolphins are like an alcoholic in that the first drink is the worst one.  After that, losing becomes somewhat a natural part of the routine as does the daily drink.

To train hard during the week and then end it with a loss and hear fans that want to go crazy because the Dolphins are losing and while other teams like the 49ers, Bengals, and Titans appear to have the recipe for success is not enjoyable, but it's a routine. 

Looking back on that loss to the Browns in December 2010, you see the emergence of Chad Henne as scared quarterback in clutch moments.  (2 losses decided by final drive INTs against the Browns). A defense that’s best play is in the first game in the season when Jared Odrick ran into Wes Welker and the ball was suddenly his.

I can’t say that the Dolphins aren’t trying. They are just very inconsistent and haven’t yet mastered the art of playing 60 minutes. 

So, here’s what I propose, the Dolphins need to go to their dojo, train for every opponent and look for their weaknesses.  They need to find a way to exude peace, harmony, and tranquility with eachother and stop pointing fingers.  They need to look in the mirror and realize that they are in this heap of losing together…

But of course, it will take more than playing better to avoid sinking deeper into infamy as a losing franchise.

Go Phins!

Phins Phocus gets a new blogger : @DolphinMick

Written by Daniel Eliesen on .

Due to the depression the Dolphins play, and my new venture into Bloguin’s newest project NFL blog Any Given Sunday, I haven’t been able to give Phins Phocus my undivided attention.  We pride ourselves here at Phins Phocus at giving you a unique look at the Phins. That being said like I said in my last post I expect to be more active blogging once or twice a week but recently we just signed a new blogger Michael Serrania or as some of you from twitter might know him @DolphinMick

Michael is a educated Dolphins fan like most of going through the lul’s of this season but wanted a chance to spread his voice and opinions on the phins to the public.

So give Mick a warm welcome to Phins Phocus, I am sure he is excited to inform you guys of all he has to offer.

Till later folks,

Daniel

What to think of the Dolphins ?

Written by Daniel Eliesen on .

Suck for Luck appears to be the only option in Miami right now


Sorry for the delay between articles, I have been writing for Any Given Sunday, bloguins feature NFL blog and it has been tough to write about the Phins these days. That being said we will make a greater effort to get more prime time articles out for you to read.


The morning after a brutal loss in front of a national audience against our bitter rivals leaves the Phins in serious trouble.  With the season seemingly over at 0-5, the argument to SuckForLuck becomes more realistic each week.

The Dolphins defense which was once thought of to be one of the best 5 in the league has yet to show up this season and the Dolphins offense has regain its anaemic form of a season ago.


Matt Moore did not take very long to prove he does not have what it takes to be considered as a potential starting moving forward. However Moore did look like he will be able to potentially lead this team to the number 1 pick like he did a year ago in Carolina.

According to Armando, Dolphins beat writer, The Dolphins have reached out to Eric Magini to become an informal football consultant, this makes me think twice about Irelands job security.

It is obvious that Tony Sparano will not be here next year as the owner Ross already said he wants a proven superstar head coach.


It’s not easy being a Dolphins fan right now, as the Dolphins are back to 07 form being the joke of the league and we still got 11 games to go, so sit back and enjoy the race to #SuckForLuck.

That all for now, look forward to bringing more insight shortly

What the Dolphins have to do during the bye !

Written by Daniel Eliesen on .

Sitting down on a nice comfy chair relaxing and trying to keep my cool as I realize how big of a hole the Dolphins are in at 0-4. That being said it is the bye week, time to regroup and reenergize. There is a lot of work to be done during this bye week so I decide to make a list and maybe help out the Dolphins coaching staff.

Things the Dolphins need to do during the bye week:

1) Figure out how to use Reggie Bush

 

Let’s face it the Dolphins are 0-4 and many fans are dejected, if the Dolphins aren’t going to be winning games at least they can try and be more entertaining and flashy.  While the Saints signed a lightning bolt in a bottle named Darren Sproles the Dolphins are left with their leftovers Reggie Bush.

bush

I am not going to point the blame on Reggie because although he hasn’t been that affected he has hardly been used and he has definitely not been put in the right situations that feature his strengths.

 

Come on Daboll; figure out a way to use this guy better.

 

2) Teach the linebackers to cover

 

Mike Nolan led this team to the 6th best defense in the NFL last year and for some reason they have fallen off the deep end this year. One of the biggest faults in Miami for years now has been the lack of ability to cover opposing teams TE’s. I don’t care what it takes but defensive guru Nolan and new linebackers coach Brain Cox needs to teach  these linebackers how to improve their coverage skills.

 

3) Go to church or synagogue or wherever it is you go, but start praying for a miracle

For the Jews out there celebrating the Holidays…Shana Tova and meaningful fast...That includes you Igor and Sage!

 

ALTERNATIVE ROUTE

 

SUCK FOR LUCK !!

LUCK
